"How did you learn japanese" "by being a weeb" Thanks for the lesson will start practicing more

[@itsreallybarbs]

You were the first channel that I subscribed to once I started going down the seiyuu rabbit hole :) Thank you for all the content you put out! If it wasn't for you and other seiyuu sub channels, I wouldn't have discovered so many awesome and talented people! Keep it up :)

[@isfj1234]

日本人です。8ヶ月間投稿がありませんね…体調は大丈夫ですか？新しい投稿待ってます‼(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭*

[@jemiellauren6578]

you're one of the reasons most of us got into the seiyuu fandoms, thank youuuu so much for your efforts!! also, this is the first time i saw your face and i immediately thought of Kaji yuki 😭😭

[@hoshis2706]

Thank you for the Q&As! That was fun to watch XD Tysm for all the subbed contents, you deserve more subs, keep up the good work ❤️

[@supersipra3782]

A legend commenting in another legend's Channel 😏

[@lollidrops9380]

Yalu's videos were literally my gateway drug into the seiyuu fandom. I'm grateful!

[@bubbleberry7777]

it's shimono birthday today. where are you now yalu? 😭 it's been 6 months

[@chrissyhello]

I LOVE MONONOKE!!! Underrated anime for sure. Every time I tell people about it I also have to clarify that it's not the Ghibli one and then they'll say "oh, never heard of it then". Highly recommend. Loved this Q&A, and congrats on 60K!

[@kausthita11]

I was not expecting that epic intro 🤣

[@sarah.I]

It's literally 4am here at my place and im not complaining. Im glad i found someone who watched mononoke series tho 😭

[@catherinegao9048]

Wait for the outro….it’s worth it!

[@bananas_8235]

The part on Nakahara and Shimono is really interesting

[@whitechs1225]

istg keep doing your things. im so glad there are more and more people who know shimomon beyond his role from KnY. that man is just a precious ball of happiness. I truly wish him and YOU (for doing what you're doing, and staying alive and being awesome) all the best!!!

[@PikaCantSub]

20:38 Yeah I keep getting “Nezuko-chan” and “Ganyu” spam in comments, even in videos that has nothing to do with Genshin or KnY. I kind of ebbed from interacting with the comment section because of it.

[@pylyca300]

I'd actually love more videos like this in the future ~ despite the fact that you're a fansubber I think its interesting to have intl seiyuu fans talk about seiyuus so freely on youtube, I don't see it often!

[@en_meri]

Thank you for always bringing great shimono hiro contents for us weebs who can't understand japanese, I'm hoping to see more in the future ❤️❤️❤️

[@_alex.ion1306]

OMG you are my spirit animal i swear😂congrats on the 60k you definitely deserve it 🥳🥳

[@glowlydays]

Ever since uh the bunch o scandals I have been out of seiyuu content myself so only now I found out about your retirement - hope you're doing well in school and that u got Lyney LOL and everything else is good and well ~ thanks a lot for all the content u put out along the years :)

[@MangaKoreWa]

If you like sarcastic comedy, you might like Ixion Saga DT, it made me laugh so much! Plus it has a supah casting (Eguchi Takuya as MC, FukuJun as a transgirl, Kamiyan as the antagonist, and so much more) I personally understood Japanese even more by listening to blcds every night 👁👄👁 (don't judge me) That's also partly why Morikawa Toshiyuki became my ultimate seiyhusbando u_u

[@stxrdustttt]

from the bottom of my heart, thank you for your contribution in the seiyuu fandom community, i never found anyone like you!! love you so much!!!!

[@KingJH0510]

this is fucking amazing we have reached peak seiyuu related content

[@sylv_atica]

Jean otus!!! It was a role that made me fell for shimono san too! The contrast is nice since as he mostly voiced the genki shounen type. Congrats for 60k Yaluu!!! 🎉🎉 the QnA is super fun And thank you for all the shimono san contents

[@aribtd]

Finally another baccano! lover 🥺❤

[@erikanavaja7424]

And then I watched this after Shimono was interviewed about his family. He is an adorable oji-san, and the article did not change that.

[@penguin123446678]

Thank you so much for all the work youve done! Your content were my first encounter with the seiyuu hellhole and now Im a regular sufferer 🙃 From shimono > kaji > the rest of the industry >fixating on terashii rn lmfao Also damn same thoughts about the not-rly-chaotic-normal-person vibe! Thats what drew me to terashii so hard since hes kinda like That Nerd Guy who happens to be in the same industry hes brianrotting for lol! EDIT: This do be Implanting the seed for me to translate terashii content hmngngn

[@cookielovesseiyuu2166]

Thanks for the Q&A Yalu!! i could have never expected you to be a nature person 😭 It was nice learning new things about you though :)

[@Princess18505]

I related to your story of learning Japanese way too hard haha. I got into the utaite fandom and started watching their streams and content raw(obviously) and it went like hey I can understand what they’re saying, that’s pretty cool!

[@josh_who_what]

I stumbled onto this channel because I was going down the seiyuu rabbit hole.

[@XiCVenus]

I came for the QnA, but stayed for the way you talk

[@heynotme]

Thank you for your videos :") you were one of my first seiyuu channels and a huge part of my knowledge started through your channel hahah I'm always very grateful!!

[@amarainocencio2329]

first glasses normal 2 seconds later : slightly tilted but its ok 2 seconds later: super tilted : 3 seconds later : upside down

[@sunnysiderice]

Thank you always for your translations! Your channel definitely helped me (and others) fall into the seiyuu hole and its great to be here. This Q&A was well edited and really chill :D

[@GoldieLoo13]

It is nice to finally see youu! 💙

[@Kayano_05]

I'm waiting for your new post

[@Lipsareturningblue]

Yaluuuuu!!! You’re awesome! Thank you for all your work subbing content 💗 you are my main source of Shimonnu for when I feel a bit sad and need a laugh! Keep up the good work!!

[@Ashley80005]

Oh wow…I wasn’t expecting you to answer my question. I just thought it was kind of generic, boring, and probably a bunch of other people would ask the same thing! That really made my day thank you! I probably should’ve said more about what I like about Shimono San. But, all I could think about was that crazy, goofy laugh of his. It always makes my day brighter.😊💖 But, like you said. I love how straightforward, and how much he expresses himself. I actually love how normal he is!😊😂💖 It’s amazing, he’s in his 40s, and he’s so freaking adorable! I adore that man so much, it’s nuts!🥰💖 Oh, so you’re only in your 20s, huh? Hmm, usually people in their 20s annoy the crap out of me. But, you seem like a chill, funny, well-adjusted young lady. I’m happy that you’re doing what you’re doing, you just keep it up, girl! (I’m 35, and I usually don’t act my age, BTW!😊😂) Yeah, I can’t stand it when people call Seiyuus by their first names, like they’re so familiar with them. Newsflash, you’re not, can you be more respectful, please? Also, being so surprised that a certain Seiyuu voices two different characters, that they love? It’s really not so surprising, because a lot of these voice actors are very talented at what they do, and you’re right, it is their job, dear Lord. If they can voice two completely different characters, that just shows their range and talent. So, maybe try to broaden your mind more.🙂👍🏻 I adore some of the male Seiyuus, that you mentioned are your favourites…Well, other than Shimono San of course! Taniyama, Terashima, Namikawa, Daisuke Kishio, Furukawa, Eguchi, Yoshitsugu, Ryohei Kimura, and Suzumura. I have even more Male Seiyuus that I really like, such as…Daisuke Ono, Junichi Suwabe, Mamoru Miyano, Daisuke Harikawa, Nobunaga Shimazaki, Shoutaro Morikubo, Tomoaki Maeno, Yuki Kaji, Katsuyuki Konishi, Nobuhiko Okamoto, and Hiroshi Kamiya.

[@YaluSubs]

I had to include yours because you’ve earned it as a regular on this channel :) I always see you writing passionate paragraphs about Shimono-san.

[@Ashley80005]

@@YaluSubs Wow, you consider me a regular, that's so nice! I just thought I was just you know, kind of casual person. I'm a bit embarrassed that you realize this, but yes I am guilty as charged for gushing about Shimono San. I can't help it, I've got a total crush on the guy, and he's talented. He spreads positivity like you said, and he seems like a really good guy.😶💖

[@lastnamefirstname8655]

thanks for the QnA.

[@spacesandals5716]

As someone who's not too into the Fandom, I thought she was a seiyuu doing a Q&A based on the thumbnail. Cool video tho, made me wanna get into the Seiyuu Fandom more

[@adivevizar]

that intro is just a masterpiece

[@catherinegao9048]

You are the best!

[@xxForgottenxSecretx]

Can you upload the one with Shimono and Kaji in america?🌞I believe it's called "bokura ga america wo tabi shitara"

[@YaluSubs]

Sorry that one’s copyrighted

[@xxForgottenxSecretx]

@@YaluSubs ah okay :)

[@JD-nq8kh]

Great work on the channel, thank you for all the videos so far! Looking forward to more from you in the future : )

[@marielalcesto7203]

I'm late🥺 And yeah, watching anime influenced me a lot to learn Japanese. I can understand Japanese a little but I can't read Hiragana. Watching anime is my way of studying the language.

[@adeaoud3404]

I absolutely love this; you are hilarious

[@tsune608]

i'm late to this video but first six minutes in and i'm literally seeing wayyy to many similarities i myself started learning japanese like this, don't know how to read write or speak but can understand, discovered seiyuu the same way and discovered and got into shimono with the EXACT SAME VIDEO OMG

[@noggindecay]

you talking about the first video you ever saw shimono hiro in was such a nostalgia trip, i discovered him from the exact same clip LOL

[@Deafturtle911]

Notification gang gang 😎

[@lizzuuu3831]

YOUR FAVORITE ANIME IS MONONOKE, TRULY A PERSON OF CULTURE Q_Q Also, I super agree 100%, his talent shines the most in serious roles, which are my favorite of his. It's always thrilling when he plays a serious character. The man's got range.

[@katsuragikeima8809]

q&a arc poggers glad to get to know you!

[@goldenclover_]

OMG your top 10 and my favs are 6 of them, I'm so happy someone knows those series. ;v;

[@phoebecheung723]

Back to your channel after knowing Shimono san has been married for 10 years💥💥💥 To see if any other fans surprised just like me (@[]@!!) Anyways...congrats to Shimono san❤ Real fans will still love him no matter what

[@clairev2942]

[@clairev2942]

[@elainechan7155]

Thank you for all the videos/content that you uploaded 😃 And yeah, i fell into the rabbit hole, and not gonna go back out...

[@Greencard.1]

Most epic moment in subbing history xdd

[@shinlol8909]

[@caffeweine]

waaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh just recently dug myself into the seiyuu hellhole again and immediately searched up your channel to check for any videos i missed so i'm just seeing this hahahah. also thank you for telling us where you find your clips because lord there are so few on youtube and it is considerably hard to find them. thank you so much for subbing videos i definitely enjoy yours way too much aha... time to dive deep into bilibili.. do you have any tips on how to gets started?

[@MichelleGR_]

Tienes una linda voz !

[@mischeviousassgremlin]

Fun fact: Watching anime literally changed my life. I'm trying to be a seiyuu after being a seiyuu otaku

[@Mighty.Matcha.]

It’s nice to see your face reveal! Pretty curious for a Long time

[@imstupid880]

She's real AND cute???

[@the_phroggg]

“I like a bit of chaos” How did I know Taniyama would be on that list. I could sense it.

[@kai_ishii]

Woah your ethnicity is Chinese, that ended my curiosity. I’ve watched a link in the shimono’s laugh compilation and I noticed it’s bili bili, and I thought hey maybe you understand/speak Chinese. Well have a great day!

[@georgelandro6561]

One question what's seiyuu content?

[@Sayaahh]

6:24 I remember the interview of suzuken saying shimono is so normal too 😂😂 and told the staff to try steal his glasses ahaha

[@imjustKirahello]

You are adorable ❤️

[@naticita]

I love it 🛐💗🌠 thank you for this video I wanted to know you more 🥺thank you for make your seiyuu videos ❤👌🥰

[@bluelan6886]

Wow Yalu. Nice chair. Nice spin,

[@maomao-j1z]

[@BloodTrinity]

"Weaboos" Idk chief, I'm still in a time bubble calling myself an anime otaku.

[@leonidas79]

Normal people: what is this super weird conversation? I need to get the fk out of here ASAP She, and well, us: what is this super weird conversation? I need to know more about this fandom.

[@yktdmtranslations1322]

This is such a chill and wholesome Q&A ✨✨

[@extremepillows]

NAHH THIS U? BOOMERR ☠️☠️☠️

[@abn0rma1y]

LOL OOF

[@cookielovesseiyuu2166]

3:42 i agree with yalu sooo much when she says to watch it raw. for me watching seiyuu videos without subtitles really really helped me understand japanese and after watching seiyuu videos raw since around february-march of this year, i started to sub videos from japanese to english (although my skills with understanding japanese are nowhere near yalus 🥲) listening to japanese songs helps as well ☺️

[@MeowingCookie_]

I started doing this recently mostly watching Kaji streaming and some of the many Radio Misty episodes. As well as HeroAca Radio which is what first took me down this rabbit hole 😂 My comprehension of spoken Japanese has increased so much in just the last 2 months. Plus you get to listen to some hilarious stuff 😋
